Any Language, Any Method
Textbooks, immersion, apps, tutoring — anything works. Any language, any level.
What does methodology-agnostic mean?
Hinabi doesn't force a specific curriculum. It is built to adapt to your methods—whether you do pure media immersion, study for the JLPT, or follow specific grammar textbooks.
Does Hinabi sync with other tools?
Yes. Hinabi features automated integrations to sync your review data directly from external platforms like Anki and WaniKani, centralizing your study statistics.
Is Hinabi free to use?
Hinabi is currently in its beta phase and is completely free to use. Our goal is to build a robust, distraction-free study tracker alongside our early adopters.
